DmC kind of brought in story elements from DMC1 and DMC3, with the Vergil fight about power and Mundus main antagonist. It added many original elements to it but it can't be denied there was influence.

I kind of want to see DmC2 if there is one take influence from DMC2 and DMC4. The thing is that the stories can be blened well with the elements added in by the reboot continuity. Lucia and the Order of the sword were focused heavily on angelic themes and in the first game they explored the Hell side of the  verse, While some may say it might be to Bayonetta it wouldn't be bad to look at the angel side of the lore a bit more in DmC2. Dante and Vergil awakened their Devils but what about their angels?

Then again the end of Vergil's downfall basically foreshadowed a fight against Hell with Vergil as boss,
